Chicago Blackhawks interim coach Derek King said after the team’s 6-2 loss to the New York Rangers Tuesday night that forward Jujhar Khaira was “very responsive” and up and talking after a scary hit by the Rangers’ Jacob Trouba that sent him to the hospital.

In the second-period hit, Trouba appeared to drive his shoulder into Khaira’s chin and he went down with his head bouncing hard on the ice and no sign of movement before medical personnel rushed in an he was taken off in a stretcher.
